Travelin soldier Dixie Chicks
[A]Two days past eighteen
He was waiting for the bus in his army greens
Sat dow[D]n in a booth in a cafe there
[A]Gave his order to a girl with a bow in her hair
[A]He's a little shy so she gave him a smile
So he said would you mind sitting down for a while
And talk[D]ing to me
I'm feeling a little low [A]
She said I'm off in a[G]n hour
And I kn[D]ow where we can go [A]
[A]So they went down and they sat on the pier
He said I bet you got a boyfriend but I don't care
I g[D]ot no one to send a letter to [A]
[G]Would you mind if I sent on[D]e back here to you [A]
[F#m]I cried[D] never gonna hold the hand of another guy
[A]Too young for him they told her
[C7]Waiting for the love of the travellin soldier
[F#m]My love will never end
[D]Waiting for the soldier to come back again
[A]Never more to be alone when the letter says [C7]
My soldiers coming home [A]
[A]The letters came from an army camp
In California and Viet Nam
He tol[D]d her of his heart and it might be love
And all [A]of the things he was so scared of
[A]He said when it's getting kinda tough over here
I think of that day sitting down at the pier
And I clos[D]e my eyes and see your pretty smile [A]
Don't worr[G]y but
I won't be able t[D]o write for awhile [A]
[F#m]I cried[D] never gonna hold the hand of another guy
[A]Too young for him they told her
[C7]Waiting for the love of the travellin soldier
[F#m]My love will never end
[D]Waiting for the soldier to come back again
[A]Never more to be alone when the letter says [C7]
My soldiers coming home [A]
SOLO
[A]One Friday night at a football game
The lords prayer said and the anthem sang
The man [D]said
Folks would you bow your head
For the list [A]of local Viet Name dead
[A]Crying all alone under the stands
Was the picolo player in the marching band
And one n[D]ame read nobody really cared [A]
But a pre[G]tty little girl with a bow in her [D]hair [A]
[F#m]I cried[D] never gonna hold the hand of another guy
[A]Too young for him they told her
[C7]Waiting for the love of the travellin soldier
[F#m]My love will never end
[D]Waiting for the soldier to come back again
[A]Never more to be alone when the letter says [C7]
My soldiers coming
My soldiers coming home.
